Henry's striking underwater photography is applied directly to an authentic, full-size surfboard and finished in gloss, transforming the ocean's movement, color, and depth into a sculptural statement you can hang on a wall - or take into the water. Limited to just 50 pieces, each board is individually numbered, making this a true collectible at the intersection of fine art and surf culture.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n  Designed for spaces where traditional framed artwork simply isn't enough, Slowing Down commands attention in luxury residences, contemporary coastal interiors, hospitality environments, and design-forward offices. Its elongated 5'7\" form creates an architectural presence whether displayed vertically, horizontally, or leaned freestanding within an interior. And unlike decorative replicas, this is a fully functional EPS surfboard - built to ride just as confidently as it is built to display.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLimited Edition - 1 of 50:\u003c\/strong\u003e Strictly limited to 50 numbered pieces worldwide, ensuring lasting collectible value and exclusivity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOcean Photography by Henry Bliss:\u003c\/strong\u003e Features original underwater photography by acclaimed ocean photographer Henry Bliss, printed directly onto the board.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFully Functional Surfboard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Not a replica - built as an authentic, rideable surfboard by Surfboard Trading Co. that performs in the water.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions - 5'7\" x 21 1\/4\" x 2 5\/8\":\u003c\/strong\u003e Full-size board with an elongated form that creates a commanding architectural presence in any space.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVolume - 33.6L:\u003c\/strong\u003e Generous volume provides real-world surfability for a range of skill levels and conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEPS Construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Built with EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) construction for a lightweight, high-performance feel on the water.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGloss Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Premium gloss finish enhances the depth and vibrancy of the photographic artwork and protects the board's surface.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDual Display Orientation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hang vertically or horizontally as wall art, or lean it freestanding - versatile placement for any interior layout.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade to Order:\u003c\/strong\u003e Each piece is custom crafted to order, with a standard build time of 12-16 weeks and an expedited 6-week option available.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSurfboard Trading Co.
